Spring collection

It's almost here.

You will like it. It's pretty darn nifty.

And you will be surprised.

And that's all I have to say about that. The end.

Just kidding.

Let's have a naming contest, shall we? You suggest possible colorway names. If I use one of yours, I'll send you a free skein of that colorway. When you make a suggestion below, please be sure to enter your email address so I can contact you if you win. (Your email address will not be visible to anyone but me.)

Have at 'em!

Some suggestions:

"Puddles on a Playground"
"Royal Rain"
"April Showers"
"May Flowers"

"First Hike"
(I love to hike, and I love early spring hikes, when the snow is mostly gone, but there are some lovely bits of clean snow left over with some dark mud and then green poking through everywhere)

"Imbolc"
(Irish spring festival! From Wikipedia: "Since the Celtic year was based on both lunar and solar cycles, it is most likely that the holiday would be celebrated on the full moon nearest the midpoint between the winter solstice and vernal equinox, or when the primroses, dandelions, or other spring flowers rise up through the snow, or when the sun aligned with the passage tombs among the pre-Celtic megaliths")

"Go n-éiri an bothar leat."
(May the road rise to meet you...)

Hope you like them!

Cheers,
M.
